Andy Thurston | Drum Tuition

My son has been been taught by Andy since he was 7 years old and is still progressing. Andy has been enthusiastic and engaging, finding different ways to enjoy drumming while still moving him on technically. The occasional Zoom event with a ‘drumming guru’ has been a welcome highlight too, allowing my son to see the others being taught by Andy and find new sources of inspiration. Andy has been great through COVID lockdowns and has done remote lessons where it was the only way to keep tuition...

Andy is an absolutely wonderful drum teacher, and also a super nice person (which is always helpful when you're spending half an hour to an hour in the same room as someone). Learning the drums has been a bit of a bucket-list dream of mine for a few years, and I'm grateful that I found Andy's website and started lessons with him -- it has been such an enjoyable journey so far. I highly recommend Andy as a teacher and also as a person!

Andy has been a great drum teacher for my son over the last several years (and more to follow, I'm sure!). Always teaching lessons with great knowledge and enthusiasm, pitching at the right level depending on current progress, and importantly for any good teacher: always listening, reflecting and adapting to get the best out of every lesson. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Andy to anyone looking to start, improve or excel at drumming.

I have been taught by Andy for a few years now and i can honestly say that he is one of the best drum teachers i have ever had. His relaxed approach makes you feel that you can succeed in what you do and it has motivated me to work harder to achieve my goal. Andy is a fantastic teacher and i have grown and developed so much in a short space of time. If you are considering having drum lessons then i would highly recommend Andy

Andy has been teaching my six year old son to play drums for just over a year. The progress he has made in that time is very impressive. Andy makes the lessons fun and informative. He pitches his instructions perfectly for my son who always comes out of the lesson excited to get on with practicing his new task for the week. I would highly recommend Andy to anyone is thinking of learning drumming.
